We live everyday, yes and we get tired of it. But what's the use of looking at the bad sides of life?, we experience a lot of hardships and pain at some point wait in vain for the answers to the questions we have in mind. Let me share to you the best things life has offered me. I am the youngest of four siblings and I feel lucky to grow in the loving hands of my parents Luis and Betty. Our family survived the ocean of tears. When my brother Leo died in 1989, he was 25 and I'm 7 years old then. As a child and a human being, I cried a lot, he was my favorite brother, I look up to him though we've been together for a short time because he left for Japan to work and study. He is the reason why I became a musician because before he left, he gave me Beatles Love Songs LP and inside the vinyl sleeve, he wrote a not "To Choy from Kuya". Looking at the note, it gave me a short but wonderful memories of him. 11 years after, my mom died of complications of the liver, that is the darkest hours of my life. She died October 5, 2000, 7 years today. Now, enough of the bad, let me show you now the good things life offered me. Life gave me the chance to learn to be strong, the experiences gave me the guts to live the right way. As a musician, I am an open channel to all the vices and evils of the world. I got hurt a lot of times and I learned to love, care for people and look at the good things no matter how bad they are. I met God early though I'm one of His headaches..... I always ask Him to make me His instrument to spread His love and peace to mankind. So, how about you?Thanks for taking the time to read this small blog about life. Hope to hear from you soon! Take car and God bless!* I am just a dot in this world, but I will show you how a dot can move and be a reason for change.
